Duke senior guard Seth Curry underwent surgery Monday on what the Blue Devils termed a “lower right extremity injury” and is expected to be sidelined 10-12 weeks.

Curry, the Blue Devils’ leading scorer at 17.5 points per game, had been dealing with lingering pain in his right shin for much of the 2012-13 season. His shooting helped lead Duke to the Midwest Region final vs. Louisville, where it lost to the Cardinals.

“Seth showed tremendous toughness, both mental and physical, this season while playing through the injury,” Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said in a statement. “He had an amazing season even though he was held out of a majority of our practices. This surgery will further stabilize the leg and help the healing process as Seth prepares for a bright professional career.”

Curry’s surgery was performed by Dr. Rober Zura and Dr. Claude T. Moorman. Curry's recovery could spill into July, past the June 27 NBA draft.

Sporting News named Curry a second-team All-American this past season. DraftExpress.com is not projecting Curry will be drafted.
